[QUOTE="Studebaker Hawk, post: 12133582, member: 51267"]You have answered your own question correctly. to permanently solve this problem you need to unbolt the slides and move them back 6" or so. 1 or 2 holes depending on the spacing. Find out what the actual front axle rating is. Frequently trucks will have g rated tires which on a front axle are only good for 12350 (6175 lbs x 2) You can get H rated tires which ups that to 13,220. See Bridgestone link: [URL]https://az184419.vo.msecnd.net/schneider-trucks/PDF/maintenance/TireLoadRangeGvsH.pdf[/URL] In all cases you must stay below the rating of the axle, or tires, whichever is lower.[/QUOTE]
